Chicken Cordon Bleu

Unfortunately, Chris Kimball doesn’t have a recipe for Chicken Cordon Bleu. Perhaps he thinks it’s too similar to other forms of schnitzel (for example here or a milanese), but this version is rolled with ham and Swiss cheese. Also, here I served it with a white wine sauce. Overall it is relatively simple to prepare and makes for a nice, but rich, meal. The hardest part is properly wrapping and rolling so that the cheese doesn’t ooze out during cooking; compete success today.

Breaded, Rolled Chicken, Ham and Swiss Cheese, with white wine sauce.

Issues:

During cooking the pan was hotter than expected, so the first side was a little too dark. I was able to adjust the temperature so that the dish wasn’t too badly overcooked.
